u Maketh tho IIeart Sick

oh, Sarah Jane, my Sarah Jane, WHEN
will this thing be DER, of cleaning house,
of washing walls aud scrubbing every floor:
For seven days I've stood it now, for seven
DAYS of care, of eating cheese and picked
pork and sleeping on chair Pm sick OF
seeing carpets piled in heaps upon the
ground I'm sick OF hearing tinware
cleaned with harsh and grating sound;
I'm sick of dust and mopS and broOms, OF
scrub and scraps and grind. I hate to see
YOU snorting round as though you'd lost
your mind. Now let us put the lougnc IN
place and nail the carpet down, and sub
stitute that ragged dress with some more
decent gown. I'd sooner live within a
house that never knew broom, than eat
cold hash and waste my life mid mops and
rags and gloom. You say you'll do 1t,
Sarah Jane? No more the place you II
mar? Then glory to the Lord Of Hosts,
from whom all blessings arcr'-IirhiSo"
